I guess I'm somewhere on the intermediate level. I'm done with learning kana and basic grammatical rules. Next is ... everything else!! That's gonna be a looooooooong way to decent speaking and reading levels.
Basically, I can understand if two Japanese talk standard and quite slowly with
very common words. Also, replying to
very common and easy questions and statements is OK.
I think I need maximum exposure to the language and that's almost impossible to achieve outside Japan (except if you are lucky enough to find a Japanese friend that'll
actually speak to you in Japanese
).
